Help Please

After Realizing i dont no alot about cars and not knowing what to do with My G35, If Decided to get some opinions......with 1,500 what can i do to my car that will make it sound and perform better. Example. High Flow cats, headers, CAI, ECU Reflash? Im not looking for alot of HP gains just enough.

I dont want to get a whole new exhuast system put on like a Nismo, Borla or Stillen. I want to keep it stock but louder and get a lil more HP out of my car to.

Any Suggestions?

You can do a Z-tube mod ($75).

Exhaust go with only a muffler change if you don't want to do a cat-back exhaust. However, I don't know how you are going to go louder if you don't want to change any part of your exhaust.

Crawford plenum and Cats as well as Pro-1 headers would do you well. No drastic sound changes more flow.

Check these links for these items.

Go back to school for grammar, sintax and puctuation. -jk

Invest in yourself as a driver first -go to a high-speed drivers ed. school.

Z-tube and K&N and plenum spacer are cheap mods that can come 1st. Then exhaust.

My grandmother also thinks she knows how to drive. -jk

Passing your state's drivers license examination does not teach you to react or experience what occurs in a car at higher than normal speeds. It is not about "shifting mad quick, yo". It is about knowing how to react to sudden oversteer, understeer, quick lane changes, abrupt changes in traction, emergency maneuvers...

Try these: bondurant.com, skipbarber.com, panozracingschool.com, racenow.com, also BMW puts some nice high-speed driver education schools.

By the way, when you see "-jk" it means that it is meant as a joke. Lighten up, junior.
